The LFO is wicked, give it a try with a longer sample phrase:

1) Assign a LP Filter to the pad with the sample
2) Set the cutoff to 50 and the resonance to about 60
3) Adjust the LFO speed to 1 quarter note or whatever fits the phrase
4) Set the value for filter modulation to 25

Bingo, your lick should get a totally different twist. If you wanna get really out there, try and assign one of the sliders to the cutoff frequency and off you go.

Hope that helped.
